his success in the section officer examination and I had predicted his success.

He answered he was and he thanked me for that prediction. Later, when on the

list he was giving political predictions, I had warned him, on this list not to

do it because as a government servant he could run into trouble. I had seen his

horoscope in the meantime. I do not remember his answer. But he ran into

trouble and had to, to cut a long story short, leave his job. If anyone has the

archives of the list that could be reproduced.Those days he was doing

engineering from Madras was what his father had told me. After

that I was a little surprised that instead of joining some industry he chose to

appear for such a small examinati! on which ofcourse is tough.In the late

eighties,his uncle N.R.Hota IAS who had been consulting me since 1978 told me

once that his nephew (Sanjay) was spending sometime on astrology after office

hours.Like most of us, he after high school he went into a professional course

and not into Sanskrit studies in higher courses. One day when he sent a copy of

his book Crux etc.I had commented on this list that most of the horoscopes he

had used were wrong. I had them in my personal collection and I had given many

predictions on them. Now it seems he is a full time astrologer though I have

not met him after 1986 when I changed my house in Delhi. I am not aware of his

present activities. In 1998 his wife, Sushma, had come to me for an

astrological reading. When I talk about him it is with familiarity.K.N.Rao.

With all due deference to Mr. Narasimha Rao's request that list members not

criticize well-known jyotishis, I nonetheless cannot help but ask why **Mr.

K.N. Rao** seems to have such a need to do this!

 

I have read scathing, gloves-off attacks by him of Prof. B.V. Raman, Prof. K.S.

Krishnamurti, Pandit Sanjay Rath and other respected practitioners. It deeply

puzzles me why he appears to feel a need to demean other astrologers as a means

to hold on to his own turf. (If I have missed something here, I would be

honored to be enlightened as to what has truly gone on.)

 

Another thing that perplexes me is K.N. Rao's apparent penchant for disclosing

the names and details of his clients, as evidenced in the email cited below (to

the extent that it's an authentic writing of K.N. Rao).

 

If Mr. K.N. Rao would like to explain this unusual behavior, I would be more

than open to hearing his explanations - so perhaps one of his disciples

listening in can request a response. Of course, I cannot help but fear that

some years hence when I have something more to say about Jyotish, I will be the

next target for his "this town ain't big enough for the both of us" form of

sport and leisure.

 

My regrets, Narasimha, if I have overtstepped my bounds. But Jimbo standing

arms akimbo really pushed the discussion over the edge in my book.

 

Sincerely,
